WEST POINT DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY

The West Point Development Authority is the primary point of contact for economic development activities in West Point, Georgia.

Working with local, regional, state and national partners, the Development Authority works to encourage and promote economic development activity in the city, whether through location of a new company or through the expansion of an existing facility.

Business and industrial clients receive assistance in many areas of the development process, including:

Development industrial sites

Ad Valorem tax liability

Permitting & approval

Temporary office space

State and local incentives

Utilities

Workforce

Development Authority board meetings are held on the fourth Monday of each month at 12:00 PM at West Point Business & Visitor Center (707 3rd Avenue). The public is welcome to attend Development Authority meetings.
